Product FAQs

8 answers
What types of electrical gear is the Eaton RGH316039E designed to fit?

This Series G RG-frame circuit breaker is engineered for installation in Eaton Pow-R-Line panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers.

Can the RGH316039E be used in reverse-feed configurations?

Yes. Eaton Series G RG-frame circuit breakers, including the RGH316039E, are certified for reverse-feed applications without internal modification.

How does the Arcflash Reduction Maintenance System function on this breaker?

The ALSIG trip unit includes a manually activated maintenance mode. When engaged, it overrides the standard time delay settings to provide an immediate instantaneous trip, greatly reducing incident energy levels to protect personnel during live equipment maintenance.

What specific protection parameters are adjustable on the RGH316039E?

The onboard Digitrip 310+ electronic trip unit allows users to independently adjust Long-Time pickup and delay, Short-Time pickup and delay, Instantaneous pickup, and Ground-Fault pickup and delay.

What does the E suffix indicate in the RGH316039E catalog number?

The E designates that the line and load connection terminals feature standard English (Imperial) threading. Breakers requiring metric tapped pads use an M suffix instead.

Does the RGH316039E include mechanical lugs for cable termination?

No, this unit is supplied with stud or tapped pad connections intended for busbar mounting. If you are terminating standard copper or aluminum wire, compatible mechanical lugs or compression terminals must be ordered separately.

What is the difference between the Eaton RGH316039E and the RGH316036E?

Both are 1600A, 3-pole RGH breakers equipped with LSIG protection. However, the RGH316039E features the upgraded Digitrip 310+ trip unit with the Arcflash Reduction Maintenance System, whereas the standard RGH316036E does not include this maintenance mode feature.

Is the RGH316039E rated for 100 percent continuous load?

No, the standard RGH316039E is an 80 percent rated circuit breaker. It is designed to carry a continuous load up to 80 percent of its nominal 1600A frame size under normal operating conditions.
